my DD (now 18) had major surgery earlier this year and seems to be making a full recovery. she is due to see her consultant first thing monday for a follow up appointment and some tests, possibly a minor procedure done under local anaesthetic.
The usual routine at the weekend is that she goes and stays at her Gf's on friday night and comes home late monday afternoon to prepare for college on tuesday morning.
i reminded her about the appointment and asked whether she will be home on sunday night instead but she said that her gf's mum is going to drop her off at the hospital on her way to work. so i asked her if she wanted me to meet her there. her Gf answered that i didn't need to worry, she would be accompanying my DD to the appointment.
but i'm worried that vital information might be missed and certain questions go unasked as neither of them have very good communications skills. i'm also a little bit hurt that she doesn't seem to want me there. am tempted to just turn up, but DD is 18, and legally an adult and i can't make her want me there..
